I was wandering around the Mattancherry area of Fort Kochi when I stumbled across a surprisingly busy lassi place. On the sign, right under their name, was the slogan, “Beat the heat, drink lassi.”
Considering that I was completely drenched in sweat at the time, this seemed like a solid idea.
The whole point of visiting Gokul Oottupura Vegetarian Restaurant was to try one of their chaats, an Indian dish consisting of fried dough with various toppings and sauces. Alas, I guess that’s only a dinner thing, because their breakfast/lunch menu was completely chaat-free.
Lassi is an Indian yogurt drink that’s basically Yop, but about a billion times better.
